Abstract
SINCE the last report on the results of the massspectrograph (NATURE, September 22) the work with that instrument has been very disappointing. Owing partly to the capricious behaviour of the apparatus for producing accelerated anode rays, with consequent difficulties in obtaining intense beams, and partly, no doubt, to the unfavourable properties of the elements remaining to be analysed, the only success worth recording is in the case of the element indium (At. No. 49, At. Wt. 114.8).
